Calculation Methodology & Legal Disclaimer: This TCO calculator is intended solely for non-binding illustrative comparison of potential cost savings. All calculations are based on publicly available information regarding the licensing model of Broadcom VMware. Displayed VMware prices serve as calculation reference baselines and do not reflect individual customer discounts unless manually adjusted by the user.

VMware cost calculation is based on Broadcom's mandatory minimum of 16 cores per physical CPU (socket). This means that for every specified processor, at least 16 core licenses are charged, regardless of the physical core count. Infradesk is licensed on a pure socket metric (599 €/socket including 9/5 support). Optional 24/7 support (299 €/package) requires a minimum purchase of 10 packages.

Everything You Need to Know About Infradesk

Vanilla PVE is a formidable hypervisor but requires complex workarounds for global multi-cluster management, multi-tenancy, and advanced SDN. Infradesk acts as an independent API-first enterprise layer, providing centralized orchestration, WireGuard mesh networking, predictive AI auto-healing, and unified RBAC without modifying standard core systems.

No. Infradesk seamlessly connects to existing PVE- and Proxmox® VE-ready environments. All your VMs, Ceph/ZFS/NFS storage pools, and network configurations are preserved with zero disruption.

Infradesk offers transparent flat licensing per physical CPU socket for 599 € per year including 9/5 Business Support. For critical 24/7 production clusters, comprehensive 24/7 Full PVE & Infradesk Support is available for +299 € per socket/yr (minimum purchase: 10 packages).

Infradesk is designed, developed, and hosted in Germany and the EU. Built on open standards with zero-trust encryption, it meets strict GDPR requirements without data leakage to non-European cloud providers.
